"Look, that's Emperor Chongzhen." Tang Tong stretched out his hand and pointed forward, pointing at the man sitting on the dragon throne and said loudly.
"Is he Mr. Chongzhen?" After hearing this, Li You quickly looked forward, but unfortunately, he had never seen Chongzhen, so naturally he didn't recognize him.
On the other hand, Wang Zhixin, Yang Guanguang and others squinted their eyes for a moment, and then they both nodded and said, "Yes, this is Emperor Chongzhen."
After receiving the confirmation from these two people, Li You was overjoyed.
I really didn't expect that Chongzhen did not escape with the Ming army. It seems that he was probably abandoned. He was thrown into the palace by the man named Zhu Changwu.
But isn't this exactly what I expected?
Why didn't King Dashun dare to attack the capital before? Wasn't it because he was worried that Chongzhen would break through and escape under the protection of Zhu Changwu? If this is the case, even if they capture the city of Beijing, they will not be able to achieve full success. Now, Chongzhen is here, so just catching him will be a great achievement.
How could Li You remain calm when he thought of the great achievement right in front of him. Although he also saw some armed forces such as Jin Yiwei and hundreds of forbidden troops in front of Chengguang Hall. But so what, there are only so many of them, and how many people are there here.
Not to mention anything else, the 500 old battalion soldiers he brought were enough to kill the opponent's more than 1,000 people without leaving a single piece of armor behind.
Just after Li You and others arrived and looked at the front of Chengguang Hall, Chongzhen, who was sitting on the dragon chair, was also looking at them.
In comparison, Chongzhen was much more relaxed. When Zhang Xi looked like a flatterer and handed the military telescope forward, the enemy seemed to be close to him no matter how far away he was.
"Wang Zhixin, Yang Guanguang, Wu Mengming, Luo Yangxing and Mao Ningjian, very good, very good, my eyes are really blind, and I hired these treacherous officials." Chongzhen put down the telescope, his face was ashen, and his eyes were spitting fire.
These people in front of him are all his most trusted ministers. They usually see him being so respectful, and they look like they want to show their loyalty with their hearts out. Chongzhen also believed in them and entrusted them with important tasks.
But what about the facts?
They actually rushed into the palace with the intruders, intending to assassinate the emperor and kill their former master.
Give the dog some food and it will know how to wag its tail at you. But these people in front of me are clearly feeding unfamiliar white-eyed wolves. They have given them so much and are not satisfied. Now they even want to take their own lives. Such people deserve to die!
"Long live the Lord, don't get angry because of these villains. Didn't Mr. Zhu say it? It's not worth it to punish yourself with other people's mistakes. It's not worth it." Wang Cheng'en, who was standing aside, saw Chongzhen's face looking ugly and quickly spoke out to comfort him.
After he finished speaking, he glanced at the people in front of him with some worry.
Jinyiwei Comrade Li Ruolian led a thousand Jinyiwei, Zhang Yi led a hundred who were wearing Forbidden Army armor, but they were just ordinary Ming soldiers, and...
As well as a female general and female soldiers who are more beautiful than the palace maids, this is the lineup to protect the emperor.
But apart from Jin Yiwei, can anyone else really fight?
Especially the delicate women, although they are all wearing beautiful military uniforms, they are all swaying at this time, obviously they are frightened. Can you win the battle by pointing at them?
Wang Chengen was really not optimistic. At this time, he had to make the worst plan, that is, once these people could not withstand the intruders on the opposite side, he would take Chongzhen and find a way to escape first. However, he still had There are hundreds of eunuchs, even if many of them have mediocre abilities and don't have much kung fu, they can always be used as meat and shields.
As long as you give yourself a certain amount of time and rely on the complex terrain in the palace, escaping shouldn't be a problem. But it was very painful for Queen Zhou and the Crown Prince, as they were afraid that their lives would be in danger once the intruders found them.
Wang Chengen was very worried, and he did not fully trust the people sent by Zhu Changwu and did not believe in their abilities. But he didn't know that not only did he not believe it at this time, but Li Ruolian and the others didn't have much confidence either.
There are Jin Yiwei on both sides, and their numbers are basically equal, about a thousand. But only Li Ruolian knew that the Jin Yiwei in his hands were really no match for the Jin Yiwei brought by Wu Mengming's Luo Yangxing if they were to compare their combat prowess alone.
If you look at other people's homes, there are quite a few of them in the Hundred Households, and even more in the Trial Hundred Households. There are also a lot of others like general banners and small banners.
These are the backbone of Jinyiwei, and their personal combat capabilities are very good, otherwise they would not have received such an official position.
On my side, there is only one Hundred Household Sun Chuang, who has just been promoted. The others are at the lowest level, and their combat power is just a little higher than ordinary people. If they really fight, they will be their opponents. ?
Not to mention, there are five hundred intruders on the opposite side.
Although there is no fight yet and no winner or loser, you can guess just by looking at the spirit of the opponent and the somewhat compelling look in his eyes that this is by no means an ordinary person, not the kind of person who would fight on the battlefield. A veteran who has fought many times in battle will not have such a temperament.
Comparing the enemy and ourselves, his side is obviously at a disadvantage, but this does not scare Li Ruolian. What he is really worried about is that the emperor is here.
If they make any mistakes, Chongzhen's life may be threatened. If this is the case, then they will be the biggest sinners of the Ming Dynasty.
I was a little worried, and at the same time I couldn't figure it out. Why did the commander put up such a formation, especially for the emperor to come here? If it weren't like this, maybe seeing this formation, the enemy might not attack by force?
No matter what happens, Chongzhen finds a place to hide. The palace is so big, there are not many enemies coming, and it will be very difficult to control the entire palace. This can at least provide a little more security, right?
Wang Chengen and Li Ruolian couldn't figure it out, so why not Chongzhen?
But Zhu Changwu had told him before that he had to come forward this time. Otherwise, he would not be able to lure out all the enemies arranged by the intruders in the capital.
We are not afraid of enemies on the surface, but we are afraid of those hidden in the dark. And this is undoubtedly a good opportunity to hit them hard.
The Ming army is not within the capital. In such an environment, there is a high chance that thieves and spies will jump out. When the time comes, let them see Chongzhen, and the greed of human nature will make them all appear. This is far less laborious than searching for them one by one later.
Even if it was what Zhu Changwu wanted, and others had said that he would definitely ensure his safety, Chongzhen came out of trust.
Of course, Chongzhen was also very proud by nature. He didn't want to be a coward in the face of intruders, especially seeing that Zhu Changwu had done so many things for the Ming Dynasty. Of course, he also wanted to do something, but unfortunately he never had the chance.
Now, just because he showed up, he could severely damage the enemies hiding in the dark. Chongzhen thought it was worth it, so he came.
This is also due to trust in Zhu Changwu. After listening to the other party say so many seemingly unbelievable but reasonable things, he basically believed that the other party came from the future, and the other party did not have the idea of becoming the emperor. He just wanted to do something for the Ming Dynasty, or for China. What.
After knowing Zhu Changwu's thoughts, Chongzhen believed him. Although this time is a bit risky, it is also an opportunity to verify whether what Zhu Changwu said is true.
But when those people really appeared here, and more than a thousand of them came, with murderous intent, Chongzhen, who was sitting on the dragon throne, felt a little regretful.
If he had known there were so many enemies, he would really have to think carefully before taking a stand. But now, with so many people watching, there was no room for him to flinch. "Wang Zhixin, Yang Guanli, Wu Mengming, you rebellious ministers, when you see me, don't you know how to kneel down and beg for mercy?"
In order to embolden himself and improve the morale of his side, Chongzhen shouted.
The sound was not very loud, and it could barely reach the ears of Wang Zhixin and others. After hearing this voice, several people quickly became excited, "It's Chongzhen, that's him."
A person's appearance can be changed through makeup, etc., to create a seventy-eighth portrait. But a person's voice and tone of voice are extremely difficult to imitate.
Wang Zhixin and others had frequent contact with Chongzhen and knew their emperor very well. As soon as they heard this shout, they knew it was a real person.
"It's really Mr. Chongzhen." Li You was a little excited after hearing this. He was also afraid that the emperor was fake. If this was the case, and they were fighting for life and death here, but still couldn't achieve their goal, then he would have to think about it. Not worth it anymore.
"General Li, please rest assured. Our family is willing to use your head as a guarantee. This is indeed Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty." Wang Zhixin said with a very confident tone.
"I am also willing to use my head as a guarantee." Yang Guanguang and others also expressed their opinions one after another, proving that what Wang Zhixin said was true.
"Hahaha, very good. I didn't expect to find Mr. Chongzhen so easily. This is God letting me, Li You, make a great contribution, hahaha."
Li You was really excited at the thought that the great achievements of the Ming Emperor could be passed on to him. At this moment, Li You was really excited.
On the other side, after Chongzhen's angry rebuke, he still seemed to feel a little unsatisfied, so he said again: "In the face of rebellious officials and traitors, everyone has to punish them. Come on, rush up and take down all these people on the opposite side. .”
Chongzhen wanted to embolden himself and improve the morale of his side, so he shouted like this.
While shouting this, he was also ready to evacuate at any time under Wang Chengen's protection.
Chongzhen showed his determination to die before because he could not see any hope of revival. But Zhu Changwu came, new hope appeared, and he didn't want to die now.
The words were shouted out, but what he didn't expect was that no one among the people around him moved. It seemed as if the words he ordered to attack just now were not spoken.
